You are invited to listen to Author/Photographer and John Lennon’s mistress, May Pang, when she is interviewed on my show, November 15 at 11 am, EST, 8 AM on the West Coast.

It was Yoko Ono, who suggested John Lennon take a break for awhile. She asked May to accompany him, during the time now known as “The Lost Weekend.” That weekend lasted 14 months.

Did you know, a fan wrote to John, after receiving a message from Brian Epstein, via a ouija board?

Brian warned John someone would try to assassinate him.

John read this letter, during the filming of the documentary,
“Imagine,” in 1988.

John also sighted a UFO.

May will be the guest for one hour on Tuning in with Betsy, Saturday, November 15 from 11 am to 12 Noon.

May is the author of the new book, Instamatic Karma, a book of photographs, which she took of John Lennon and their friends.

THE BEATLES AND JOHN LENNON ARE ROCK HISTORY. THANKS FOR THE MUSIC AND FOR THE LIFE.

To family, friends and loved ones of John Lennon of The Beatles, my sympathy of his loss, a very talented person as one of The Beatles. I was 13 years old, living in Rohnert Park, CA., when The Beatles came to the USA. My father, Verne Sulier was in the radio business. Later in life while riding a taxicab in the state of Kansas, the cab driver looked like George Harrison. While riding a train in Germany, a man sitting across from me who looked like Paul McCartney asked me what time it was. I thought was a pleasant experience and wished I wasn’t so shy.

First off thanks for the icbredinle set you guys played 11/13/08. I grew up going to live music here in Austin that was my first Fiesta Gardens show and you guys set the bar pretty damn high. I still can’t get over the setlist: ID Engager (opener), Heimsdalgate, Gronlandic Edit, Wraith Pinned to the Mist, A Sentence of Sorts, Wicked Wisdom, Eluardian Instance… At least that is what I think you played – that’s pretty much my version of your greatest hits at least.I will say, Austin has too many hipsters just standing there nodding their heads to your music. I mean my group was going crazy dancing. If you can’t dance to your music, you need to get your head checked. So i hope you realize there were parts of that crowd losing their minds.Also super cool you guys went to Beauty Bar afterwards – I got to say chat with Ahmed and Kevin and dance the night away – damn DJ wouldn’t play any of your music! I would have killed to be on the dance floor with you guys to just one of your songs!My girlfriend just heard you on KUT this morning and I am checking that out now. Made me think how icbredinle an ACL taping would be, and while you’re at it play ACL fest!
